Description

1866 5C Rays MS64 NGC. The 1866 is always popular as the

proved to be a problematic design feature and was eliminated the
following year. This near-Gem example exhibits the incomplete
strike often seen, along with a heavy die crack near the bottom of
the reverse.Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.(Registry
